Bright Sword: From Soldier to Brigade Commander

In the later stage of the battle, the Japanese army sent planes to bomb, causing certain losses to Su Fei's troops.

The collapse of the Japanese Army's 5th Independent Mixed Brigade directly rescued the remnants of the Hebei People's Army from the encirclement.

What surprised Su Fei was that there were only more than 800 troops resisting in the encirclement. They had run out of ammunition and food, and more than 4000 officers and soldiers surrendered to the Japanese army and became prisoners. If it were not for Su Fei's timely reinforcement, this army would have ceased to exist.

The commander of the remaining troops was Deputy Division Commander Zhang, who knelt down with the 800 remaining soldiers to Su Fei: "Commander, I will never forget your life-saving grace!"

Su Fei hurriedly helped Deputy Division Commander Zhang up: "As allies in the war of resistance, it is our duty to rescue each other. You are heroes for being able to hold on to the end!"

The order of the commander of the First War Zone was announced, announcing that all the remaining militia troops would be incorporated into the Cavalry Army.

However, at the critical moment, the 4000 officers and soldiers who surrendered to the Japanese as prisoners of war were all dismissed and not employed. Although these people, especially some officers, begged hard and were willing to obey Su Fei's command loyally, Su Fei still refused.

"We don't want wimps, traitors, or cowards in our Cavalry Army. Once unfaithful, you'll never be used again!"

Deputy Division Commander Zhang was immediately promoted to the cavalry division commander of the cavalry group army.

The commander ran away, the army commander ran away, the division commander ran away, it's not easy for a deputy division commander!

After counting the assets of the militia, we found that they were not poorly off. At least, they had an arsenal and territories in several counties.

The telegram invited him to join forces with Political Commissar Zhao Gang, officers Xing Zhiguo, Shen Quan, Duan Peng and others.

Taking advantage of the powerful advantages of 81 rifles and 35 grenades, Zhao Gang and other troops repeatedly defeated the Japanese army in small-scale battles and developed rapidly. Now, the total force is more than 23,000.

Su Fei immediately strengthened the troops, let Political Commissar Zhao Gang be responsible for mobilization and education, Xing Zhiguo and others be responsible for training, and he immediately went to take control of the arsenal.

We have the personnel, the technology, and the equipment. Although they are backward, they are usable. They are better than the underground black arsenals of some people abroad.

Su Fei immediately asked them to work overtime to develop weapons and ammunition.

Even though new weapons and ammunition cannot be produced for the time being, we still need to conduct serious research and preparation, right?

If grenades can be produced, then produce 35 special grenades!

Can shrapnel be produced?

White phosphorus bombs can also be produced on a small scale, but the raw materials are a bit difficult to obtain. We have to overcome the difficulties and create the conditions!

When there was a shortage of weapons and ammunition, a telegram was sent to Li Yunlong, asking the cavalry column's arsenal to immediately reinforce with 500 Type 81 rifles, 300 grenade launchers, and some grenades.

Li Yunlong telegraphed Su Fei to return, urgently!

Su Fei immediately led 200 cavalrymen back.

Along the way, they passed through many blockade lines of the Japanese and puppet troops, and some small Japanese and puppet troops came to chase them, but they were all blown up on the spot. The powerful firepower of the 81 rifles and the precise power of the 35 grenades caused the Japanese and puppet troops to collapse instantly.

At the Eighth Route Army Cavalry Column's headquarters, Li Yunlong warmly welcomed Su Fei: "I heard that you guys wiped out more than half of the Japanese Type A Division over there? You're such a ruthless guy!"

It turned out that the second and third batches of spare parts purchased by the Eighth Route Army from North America through underground channels had also arrived.

"It's so expensive, Su Fei! This little gadget of yours is even more expensive than aspirin. The underground party comrades don't understand!"

Su Fei checked the parts, assembled them quickly, and asked Li Yunlong to keep it highly confidential.

20 sets were quickly assembled!

After debugging, the effect is really satisfactory.

Su Fei, who had used modern red-hot scanning and low-light night vision devices, really couldn't stand it, but this was the most advanced thing of this era!

At night, visibility can reach 200 meters.

Rather vague.

Leave 5 sets for Li Yunlong.

The doors and windows were closed for testing. Li Yunlong was stunned: "Genius, genius, Su Fei, who came up with this idea?"

Su Fei said there was someone, but it wasn't him. Li Yunlong didn't believe it at all. He shook Su Fei's hand vigorously, smiling until his eyes narrowed. "No one else would have thought of this, except you. I, Li Yunlong, actually trained a genius soldier. Su Fei, you are the treasure of our Eighth Route Army, haha."

Through underground channels, they also obtained silencers from other places, of multiple types, which could be installed on pistols and rifles, dozens of sets, and 50 8x optical sights.

Leave 20 for Li Yunlong.

Su Fei wanted to leave, but Li Yunlong stopped him. "How to use and maintain these precious things? I need you to teach me, right?"

Makes sense.

Su Fei could only ask Li Yunlong to select some of the most elite and loyal soldiers for special training.

Li Yunlong was already thoroughly familiar with the troops and quickly selected his men. At this time, Zhang Dabiao had been transferred here from the independent regiment and was also very enthusiastic about Su Fei.

30 soldiers were summoned, and the first thing to do was to enforce discipline and maintain absolute confidentiality. This was a top-secret special forces unit of the Eighth Route Army Cavalry Column.

Su Fei explained the weapons' performance, combat tactics, and applicable scenarios, helping the soldiers familiarize themselves with the weapons, especially adapting to the silencers, learning how to use the 8x scope, and some maintenance techniques and methods.

At night, Su Fei asked the soldiers to carefully experience the effects of the night vision goggles. The soldiers shouted in surprise and were very happy.

Tactical drills were also conducted.

Soldiers wearing night vision goggles can easily cross dangerous obstacles at night, move towards the opponent, and eliminate the opponent from 150 meters away!

"If we use this kind of equipment to fight the Japanese, they will be shot to death before they even dream of it!"

Li Yunlong asked to keep all these things!

"I'll give you some later!"

Su Fei didn't say anything and just kept looking at him. He felt embarrassed and started laughing.

Su Fei returned to the headquarters of the Cavalry Army in the Hebei-Chahar War Zone and also gathered personnel for drills and deployment.

15 sets of night vision goggles, 30 8x scopes, some silencers, and training of two sets of special tactical forces, one is a daytime sniper and the other is a night attack decapitation force.

Only a very few people knew the news, such as Duan Peng.

Wei Dayong was excluded because of his careless temper, arrogance, and negligence, and was not suitable for doing precision work!

Su Fei trained these people day and night, preparing to launch a direct decapitation operation against the core headquarters of the Japanese army in the inland area of ​​​​the Hebei-Chahar War Zone at a critical moment to speed up the progress of the Anti-Japanese War.

Let the Japanese be terrified from now on!

Five days later, the cavalry army expanded to 3 people, organized into three cavalry armies, each with two cavalry divisions, an artillery regiment, and a baggage regiment. In addition, Su Fei brought 81 rifles and 35 grenade launchers, white phosphorus bombs and shrapnel shells. The strength is now incomparable to the past!

Just when Su Fei was sharpening his knife, he received shocking news: Commander Gao urgently asked for help, and the 39th Army wanted to rebel and surrender to the enemy!
